minnbuckeye Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 My wife's side of the family has a reunion at a different location every year. This year (next weekend), Harrisburg, Pa. I always need to sample the fossils local to the area I visit. My research has brought me to this pdf which I can not open. Does anyone have a copy?????? Thanks.

minnbuckeye Posted July 11, 2019 Author Share Posted July 11, 2019 1 hour ago, piranha said: LINK @piranha Thanks!!!! Unfortunately the sites are on the opposite side of the state from where we will be staying. My home town in Ohio where I grew up (North Canton) is only 90 minutes away from the referenced areas. Will have to put the info aside until going "home" the next time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fossildude19 Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 You might do a search for Lancaster PA Fossils.

Adam86cucv Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 Montour fossil pit is about an hour and a half North and Seven Stars is 45 minutes or so North of Harrisburg as well. The Swatara State Park is around 45 minutes NE of Harrisburg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
